Short Walk, Small Weed
I took only a short walk today, and did very little with the camera. Energy is low. Brain is on hold. Body is achy.
But of course then I look down and see a tiny weed — yes, a weed! —and think “Well aren’t you lovely?” I think I’ve identified it correctly. If not I hope someone out there will correctly correct me! 😉

Me, Not Mine
Many thanks to my sweet guy, G Dan Mitchell, for making this photo.(And yes, this is how you most often find me when I have a camera in hand.)

Bee with no Sting
As is typical after an opera run, today is “hangover day”. No, I didn’t drink too much, but I feel out of sorts, my brain feels “fuzzy” (as does my vision at the moment), and I feel as if I can’t get much done. Still, I did manage a near seven mile walk, and two loads of laundry have been done. I guess I’m managing … ever so slowly!
I believe this bee is a male carpenter bee. I will check with my niece who knows all about these things, though, to verify! And yes, this is from today’s walk. If what I read is correct, this bee doesn’t have a stinger. I can live with that.

Goodnight Flower
Sometimes I look back at years past and find something I like that I’ve never posted. It’s especially fun when I can post from the same date, as I am doing here. Just two years ago, exactly.

Good Afternoon!
And now we reach the final opera of the season. Yep, no more Opera San Jose until September.
I should have planned an after-opera party, I suppose. But then I’m not really a party girl, so I’ll just head home, get in my pjs, and relax.
Yep, that’s how I operate most of the time.
Here … have a succulent for your afternoon.
